This evening, Monday, October 7, 2024, promptly at 7:30 PM, at James Monroe High School, the Fredericksburg City School Board will formally recognize and honor living legend Dr. Gladys West, for whom our new elementary school is being named.
In a historic move, the Fredericksburg City Schools Board chose on August 5, 2024, to name the city's third K-5 building Gladys West Elementary School. This the first school in the nation to recognize this great woman and her important achievements.
Join us in person or watch the School Board meeting live.
